appearance
OVERALL- Standing above most of the adult women in Inaba at 5'7", with striking red hair that almost brushes her shoulders, Calhoun should by all logic stand out in a crowd. This would be further aided by a naturally soft and pale skin and a slender build, creating a natural beauty that would shine through if it didn't appear to have dulled. nstead, Calhoun tends to fall into the background, a fallen star walking through the streets with a closed demeanor that speaks of elegance and pride lost. She takes an effort to make sure she isn't recognised, but anyone who knows her reputation would recognise the red flowery tattoos that adorn her shoulders.
UNIFORM STYLE- Although she doesn't attend school, she has a uniform at work. It consists of a simple white dress shirt, sleeves rolled up and collar undone a few buttons, plain black dress trousers and shoes, and a simple red apron over the top to protect herself from coffee spills.
CASUAL STYLE- Outside of her home she tends to wear quite generic but plain clothing. Plain shirts, dark trousers, hoodies and coats when the cold comes. When she's in her element, with friends or simply passing the time alone, she likes to wear the much more eye-catching clothing she spent many years used to. Fancy dresses, made from expensive fabrics and with form fitting and ever-so-slightly revealing cuts. Long boots and gloves, expensive jewelry, and other accessories and clothing hinting at past success.
personality
NATURE: Melancholy
OVERALL: Calhoun once boasted a loud, social, and extravagant personality. In her recent years however, she has become much quieter and far more cynical. Her life's events have lead to her more conservative personality, preferring now to keep mostly to herself rather than excitedly engage with anyone as she once would have. When out of her "space" (her coffee shop), she closes up to outsiders and avoids contact with strangers as much as possible. She moves through the streets quickly, quietly, and with as little interaction as possible.
When in her space however, or when around those she could consider friends, she warms up a little bit more. She laughs more, smiles more, and overall the picture of a younger and happier Calhoun begins to resurface. Her sense of humour and engaging personality contribute to the wonderful charm that speaks of her lost life, but no matter how much she smiles her eyes still show a deep, inner sadness. Anyone who doesn't recognise her, something she is definitely aiming for, may take it as a mystery she hides from others.
TRAITS: Below, compile a list of at least five positive and five negative traits, and write a sentence or so about how each trait impacts your character!
+ Charming - as a barista, she has to keep customers somehow. Has stolen that hearts of a few people accidentally.
+ Friendly - once you get past her self-made social shield, she cares deeply for those who care about her.
+ Supportive - as a result, she will do what she can to take care of her friends. You need a place to stay, something to eat or drink, she's on it.
+ Trustworthy - kept many secrets. She wouldn't dare to betray the trust of someone she considers close.
+ Protective - as above. You fight anyone close to her, you fight her too.
- Distant - even to those she cares about. Reluctant to open up about her own problems.
- Cynical - the world's a terrible place, to be honest. She can only cultivate a small, safe place to call her own.
- Depressive - sometimes life just takes its toll. A few scars tell tales.
- Alcoholic - prone to excessive drinking when she feels her worst. Attempting to solve this problem.
- Stoic - even those who know her may find her hard to read.

BIO: Calhoun had been praised for good looks and a beautiful singing voice from a young age in her Shibuya home. Born to a relatively poor couple, bound to a life of humility at her parent's run down bar Avalon. That is until customers caught on that the owner's beautiful daughter could also sing - she was a hit. A small but shooting star, she gained quick success and fame. By about age 14 she was already a local idol, and it wasn't long before agencies came in. Seemingly unrelated to her was her mother leaving about this time - stressful arguments with her father, differing opinions on matters unknown to the young Calhoun, and violent scenes witnessed through doors slightly ajar.
About this point, singing stopped being as fun as it used to be. The teenage Calhoun, whose beauty and vocal talents were starting to spread throughout Japan, was inducted into the stressful life of an Idol. Tours, press interviews, stage shows, rehearsal after rehearsal after rehearsal. At age 17, she told her father she didn't want to do it anymore. That was when he laughed, and spat in her face. That was when she realised why singing had stopped being fun.
Around this point was the peak of her career, and the steady decline immediately after. Whispers of her mistreatment reached the press, along with rumors of drinking problems and depressive episodes plaguing tabloids. At age 19, a week before her 20th birthday, scandal broke out. She refuses to go into details of the event, but varying stories all agree that a drunken and crying Calhoun caused quite a scene at a pre-show dinner that seemed to cost her her career. On her 20th birthday, she disappeared. Moving from place to place in the 4 years since, avoiding the spotlight while trying to make it by, Calhoun settled in Inaba about a year ago. In the quiet town she hopes to live a peaceful life, managing a small coffee shop she bought and rebranded. After all, what could possibly happen in such a small and sleepy town?
